There is no doubt that adaptive optics (AO) is the most promising method to compensate wavefront disturbance in free space optics communication (FSO). In order to improve the performance of the AO system described by discrete-time linear system model with time-delay and implicit phase turbulent model, new controllers based on a Kalman filter and its extensions are proposed. Based on the standard Kalman filter, we propose a fading memory filter to deal with the ruleless strong interference; sequential and U-D filters are applied to reduce implementation complexity for the embedded controllers. Theoretical analysis and the numerical simulations show that the proposed fading memory filter can upgrade the performance for AO systems in consideration of the unforeseen strong pulse interference, and the sequential and U-D filters perform well compared with a Kalman filter.

In this paper, a PN code tracking loop with extended Kalman filter (EKF) is proposed for a direct-sequence spread-spectrum. EKF is used to estimate amplitude and delay in a multipath. fading channel. It is shown that tracking error performance is significantly improved by EKF compared with a conventional tracking loop.

In this study, an effective estimation method of wheel acceleration is presented. The wheel acceleration is mainly used in the ABS(anti-lick brake system) and the TCS(traction control system). The wheel acceleration is a derivative term of the wheel speed which is generally measured by the wheel speed sensors. The results of a simple differentiation of the signal and an observation of the signal by Kalman filter show that Kalman filter has better performance than the simple differentiation. The differentiated sine signal which is contaminated with random noise shows a rugged signal compared with the signal which is filtered by the Kalman filter. The covariance of the differentiated signal is higher than that of the Kalman-filtered signal, too. The presented Kalman filter technique shows an effective way of solution to get the estimated wheel acceleration value which is sufficient to be applied to ABS or TCS control algorithms.

Recurrent neural networks(RNNs) trained with gradient based such as real time recurrent learning(RTRL) has a drawback of slor convergence rate. This algorithm also needs the derivative calculation which is not trivialized in error back propagation process. In this paper a derivative free Kalman filter, so called the unscented Kalman filter(UKF), for training a fully connected RNN is presented in a state space formulation of the system. A derivative free Kalman filler learning algorithm makes the RNN have fast convergence speed and good tracking performance without the derivative computation. Through experiments of nonlinear channel equalization, performance of the RNNs with a derivative free Kalman filter teaming algorithm is evaluated.

Orbit determination problems have been interest of many researchers for long time. Due to the high nonlinearity of the equation of motion and the measurement model, it is necessary to linearize the both equations. To avoid linearization, the filter based on Fokker-Planck equation is designed. with the extended Kalman filter update mechanism, in which the associated Fokker-Planck equation was solved efficiently and accurately via discrete quadrature and the measurement update was done through the extended Kalman filter update mechanism. This filter based on the DQMOM and the EKF update is applied to the orbit determination problem with appropriate modification to mitigate the filter smugness. Unlike the extended Kalman filter, the hybrid filter based on the DQMOM and the EKF update does not require the burdensome evaluation of the Jacobian matrix and Gaussian assumption for the system, and can still provide more accurate estimations of the state than those of the extended Kalman filter especially when measurements are sparse. Simulation results indicate that the advantages of the hybrid filter based on the DQMOM and the EKF update make it a promising alternative to the extended Kalman filter for orbit estimation problems.

With precise GPS carrier positioning result, we can get attitude information if GPS antenna has adequate attaching position on the vehicle. In this case, baseline length information can be bandied as an additional measurement or constraint. In this paper, we have proposed a method to improve the attitude accuracy. To overcome nonlinearity of baseline observation model, we analyze attitude estimation result using existing estimation method like a least square method and Kalman filter, and apply a new nonlinear estimation method an unscented Kalman filter Finally we confirm the improvement of attitude estimation result in the case of appling the unscented Kalman filter.

A new filter algorithm is suggested improving structurally the conventional extended Kalman filter of which the performance is dependent on the selection of the reference axes, by use of line-of-sight axes and gain rotation technique. The implementation method using microcomputer which implements tracking Kalman filter is introduced in terms of hardware and software. Then, through the simulation the performance of suggested filter is compared with that of conventional extended Kalman filter and the possibility of the real time tracking of moving target is investigated.

Kalman Filter is an efficient recursive filter that estimates the state of a dynamic system from a series of incomplete and noisy measurement. The filter is very powerful in the field of autonomous and assisted navigation. In this paper, we carry out comparative stduy to validate the performance of the application of Kalman Filter. We will build personal localization system based on Cricket mote, our system can present the real-time position of person when the man with PDA moves around. The proposed system is composed of cricket sensor networks, PDA and host computer. There is one listener attached to the PDA. The PDA will get the distance data from the listener synchronously. It will calculate the position of the person in the coordinate of the Cricket system with the trilateration method. Furthermore, it sends the real-time position information to the host computer by Bluetooth. The host computer will use Kalman Filter to process data and get the final estimated track of the person.

In mobile robot navigation, one of the key problems is the pose estimation of the mobile robot. Although the odometry can be used to describe the motions of the mobile robots quite simple and accurately, the validities of the models are limited by a number of error sources contaminating the encoder outputs so that applying the conventional extended Kalman filter to these nominal model does not yield the satisfactory performance. As a remedy for this problem, we consider the uncertain nonlinear kinematic model of the mobile robot that contains the norm bounded uncertainties and also propose a new robust extended Kalman filter based on the Krein space approach. The proposed robust filter has the same recursive structure as the conventional extended Kalman filter and can hence be readily designed to effectively account for the uncertainties. The computer simulations will be given to verify the robustness against the parameter variation as well as the reliable performance of the proposed robust filter.
